We're running out of stuff to do.

Well not really. But things are starting to appear more and more finished. Like this door!

You gotta admit that's a nice door. And there's the crucifix hanging up:

And some pendant fixtures:

And the last glass is in, in the lily Windows:

Sidewalks begun

Bathroom wall tile

Doug Hughes of Hughes Quality Flooring in Muddy, IL has begun setting wall tile in the bathrooms. It will match the floor and rise to the elevation seen here, with paint above. It's looking good!

Holy, Holy, Holy... arch boss model complete!

If you can picture a ceiling arch coming down to the point where it meets the wall, that's a common location for decorative trim or sculpture. A piece that fills in that corner is called a "boss," and we'll have ten throughout the church. We wanted some kind of angelic sculpture, as a reminder in art of the Hosts of Heaven who worship with us in every Mass. Nancy Drone has completed the sculpture and now it's off for casting. I don't know if I explained their position well, but they'll look fantastic!

Electric hook-up

Our permanent electric service is going in. This equipment yard will be something of an eyesore until we get a stone wall built enclosing it. It's not in the original contract because we thought we might find a better deal... working on that.
